Vincent Metals sells Nitronic 60 in rod, plate, sheet/strip, and foil.

Nitronic 60 is a variation on 'all-purpose' stainless steel. Its higher than usual silicon and manganese content enables superior wear and friction resistance in a metal-to-metal contact situations (avoiding "galling"). It can also maintains strength and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1200°F (650°C), making it useful in high-temperature environments.

 

A few of the products Nitronic 60 is used for include:

  • Automotive valves
  • Fastener galling
  • Pins
  • Marine shafts
  • Chain link conveyor belts
  • Aerospace applications

Nitronic 60’s wear resistance and temperature endurance are part of what make it such an “all purpose” material.
